5 fun facts about Mark Cuban that you may not know

'Shark Tank' star and entrepreneur Mark Cuban has gone a long way from his first job as a bartender.

The billionaire is way more than a TV personality, with an incredible portfolio of investments and successful achievements such as the ownership of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks and Magnolia Pictures

Here are some things you might not know about him:

1) In 2007 Cuban was a contestant in the television show 'Dancing with the Stars'

2) In 1999 he made it into the Guinness Book of Records for the largest single e-commerce transaction: a Gulfstream V private jet for $40 million. Mark could afford it because in the same year he sold his company Broadcast.com for $5.7 billion, netting about $2 billion in the process.
